Music Midtown is a great chance to catch bands you might never get to see otherwise. Frank Mullen took some chances at this year's festival in Atlanta, and found out what he'd been missing from the likes of Jimmy Cliff, BR5-49, the Jungle Brothers, and Bjorn Again, as well as a pre-Noel Gallagher walk-out Oasis.
... as opposed to Korn or Limp Bizkit. Recording with Afrika Bambaata over ten years ago, they predated and helped make way for bands like De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest, and Digable Planets, among others. At this show, a turntable and two microphones was all they needed to turn the sun-baked crowd into ...

May 1999 :: Music A-B :: AK1200 (Jason Straw)
... Moonshine label is a consistent thick jungle compilation that has serious club roots. The mix starts off with some great jump up by Aphrodite vs. A Tribe Called Quest, moving into harder-edge dance-floor-ready raga. As you move onto the second half, the night gets longer, the beats get darker, and the ...

... rap songs rarely succeed as six-minute techno anthems, a few brilliant moments do emerge. English organic-electronic pioneers Propellerheads turn A Tribe Called Quest's "Electric Relaxation" into hyper-melodic cocktail funk, while the versatile Groove Armada transforms Tribe's "Description of a Fool ...

... bohemian framework of the Native Tongue collective in the late '80s and early '90s -- exemplified by progressive hip-hop groups like De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest, and the Jungle Brothers -- has done a metaphorical U-turn in the heads of most "headz" in the last decade. A 1988 hip-hop purist's "hippie ...

Mad Men on Arrival (Hum Drums / Illmindmusik). Review by Henry "Hank" McCoy.
... record," they're not kidding, especially about the "bullshit-ass" part. Their main theme, "M.A.D.M.E.N," is an untight, unlovely attempt to mix A Tribe Called Quest and Wu-Tang Clan -- but done with a lack of charm, an absence of wit, and an apparent disregard for rehearsal. The next track is a feature ...

Bill Campbell gets the lowdown on remixing, the Philly sound and interesting names from King Britt.
... me a demo of some of his stuff. I was like, "What the fuck is this?" It wasn’t like what you heard on the first album. It was more like Prince meets Tribe Called Quest. He asked me if I wanted to be in his band, and I said, "No, I do house." Anyway, he moves up to New York and disappears for about six ...

Wave Motion (Mush). Review by Bill Campbell.
... find and impossible to dislike, combining rap and funk elements as deftly as an Ali Shaheed Muhammad. In fact, 3582 is also heavily reminiscent of A Tribe Called Quest, and, if the Ample Soul Physician is a disciple of the defunct band, he couldn't have chosen a better religion. If your neck has been ...

EP (self-released). Review by Bettie Lou Vegas.
... Kimo on saxophone, Brian Benning on keys and two vocalists -- D. Devereau (aka Dave Da Dopeman) and Lorio G. While they cite Curtis Mayfield and A Tribe Called Quest among their influences, perhaps a comparison to Everlast's solo work wouldn't be too far off, with the trumpeter from Cake thrown in for ...

Common is self-conscious with a conscience, ignoring today's rap paradigm of ...
... modern jazz-rap romp to elevate minds through experimentation both lyrically and sonically. Unlike Common's obvious jazz-hop influences, Guru and A Tribe Called Quest ("The Questions," featuring Mos Def and the dearly-missed Monie Love, reads like a note-for-note rewrite of "Bonita Applebum"), Common ...

December 1998 :: Ink Spots :: Meat Beat Manifesto (drew West)
... the earlier stuff, like Whodini, Run DMC... What about Public Enemy? Oooooh. Now that's tuff. I do like them, and Digable Planets De la Soul, A Tribe Called Quest... Yeah that's true. I do like that stuff as well. That all started in '87 and '88. I wanted to kick myself. Here I'm trying to have a conversation ...
